Perhaps the countryside was quieter, but I was glad to be back and part of the London scene. I am sure Holmes was too, but sentiment was not one of his strongest points.
I closed the street door behind us and followed Holmes along the passageway and up the stairs to our rooms, but my mind was already back to trying to solve the railway wheel puzzle. Could it... no, no, perhaps not... but how about... not that either... ? Holmes had certainly set off a hare for me to chase.
